Looks like we don't have salary information. Sorry!

#	Quote
1	[observation, 2016] When I started out, it was possible to earn a decent living as a songwriter. Now, it's a much riskier time. In today's highly competitive music marketplace, it's downright absurd that American songwriters - small business owners in the truest sense - are more heavily regulated by the federal government than to giant corporations that use and profit from the music we create.
2	[advice to young songwriters] Be authentic. Tell us your story. Let us know who you are. When you dare to share something from the center of your chest - your most private thoughts about loneliness or love - you may be happily surprised by the number of people who identify with your emotions and find comfort in knowing they're not alone.
3	The advent of digital music has brought with it some great changes in the way people consume music: people are able to discover new artists with ease and carry their music with theme wherever they go. Personally, I think that's a wonderful thing.
4	[on his work with Daft Punk] Back when I was drinking, I would imagine things that weren't there and I get frightened. Then I got sober and two robots called and asked me to make an album.
5	[His acceptance speech after winning his 1977 Oscar for "Evergreen"] I was going to thank all the little people, then I remembered I am the little people.
6	[March 1998] I could find the cure for Cancer, but what people will always remember me for is writing the theme for The Love Boat (1977).
